The rapid development of rural communities will eventually give rise to disputes that can lead to disharmony in the lives of these people and even the life of the nation and state. The legal dispute resolution process in Indonesia has two choices, namely through litigation and non-litigation channels. Mediation is one way to resolve disputes through non-litigation channels. Village communities with various characteristics often face problems in the process of resolving the dispute. The role of village government in resolving disputes is certainly very important in providing access to justice for the community. In providing access to justice for its citizens, the birth of village mediation institutions formed by the village government is a very good idea. The problems discussed in this study, first, why is it necessary to create a village mediation institution in the context of access to justice for the community?; second, what are the advantages and disadvantages of the birth of village mediation institutions? The above problems are analyzed with the framework of the theory of dispute resolution, the theory of legal effectiveness, alternative dispute resolution. The purpose of this study was to find out, identify and evaluate the importance of village mediation institutions in the context of access to justice for the community and look for the advantages and disadvantages of the birth of village mediation institutions. Through the village mediation institution, it is expected to be able to produce dispute resolution that is more effective, efficient, maintain good relations and be family-like as the characteristics of the village community in general.
